Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing in regards to an international flight that I missed due to reasons beyond my control.
For the past two weeks, I have been travelling for business and speaking at international conferences. Unfortunately, I arrived at the Tokyo airport over three hours delayed yesterday afternoon, due to the technical difficulties experienced by one of your company's aircraft.
Consequently
, I missed my connecting flight from Tokyo to Madrid
, and could not attend the conference.
As a result
of the delay, my company had to send another executive to speak at the conference in Madrid
. This
is not only a major inconvenience on our end, but it is a costly expenditure as well. Additionally
, I have had to pay out of pocket for my lodgings in Madrid
.
Since the delay was caused by your aircraft, I hope that you will compensate me for the cost of my lodgings in Madrid
as well as my additional flight home to Toronto, Canada.
I look forward to your response.
Yours faithfully,
